is only about lexical constraints.  The two tests pass the lexical test, and since the default attributes in 
error are not effectively used, because the instance documents specify a value for these attributes, the fact 
that they refer to an undeclared entity does not matter.  Changed tests to effectively make them invalid with 
respect to the VC that they claim to test.
